JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 4. d and f- block elements

The spin only magnetic moment value of the ion among \(\mathrm{Ti}^{2+}, \mathrm{V}^{2+}, \mathrm{Co}^{3+}\) and \(\mathrm{Cr}^{2+}\), that acts as strong oxidising agent in aqueous solution is _______ BM (Near integer). (Given atomic numbers: \(\mathrm{Ti}: 22, \mathrm{~V}: 23, \mathrm{Cr}: 24\), Co: \(27\))

  1. A \(5\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(10\)
  4. D \(15\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Strong oxidising agent \(=\mathrm{Co}^{+3}\) No. of unpaired \(\mathrm{e}^{-}\)in \(\mathrm{Co}^{+3}\left[3 \mathrm{~d}^6\right]=4\) Hence \(\mu=\sqrt{n(n+2)}=\sqrt{24} B M\) Nearest integer \(=5\)
